Rotten Cookies posted:Jack Capuano looks like the kind of guy to go down to a Port Jeff bar around 6 and put a LOT of Billy Joel on the jukebox, hit on some just-out-of-college girls when they come in hours later and he's tanked, and just keep harrassing them because he has a high compete level and has a lot of grit. as someone who goes to those port jeff bars to try and forget about jack capuano existing, this poo poo hit way too close to home However I do not like Billy Joel or Brand New and that also disqualifies me from being accepted as a true long islander so at least I have that going for me over the guy from your post

I'm up here in Connecticut hearing about failed attempts at scoring from the other side of the pond, and that is an accurate euphemism for the New York Islanders.

Is Dylan Strome injured or has he just been a healthy scratch for more than half of the games this season? Did he do something to piss Tippet off?

so there were GM meetings today to talk about stuff are blind side hits bad, or should daniel sedin have kept his head up? gms are split also on the agenda: the nhl potentially adopting international shootout rules - should shootouts just let the same guys shoot over and over and rob us of the marek maliks of the future?

darkwolf220 posted:Is Dylan Strome injured or has he just been a healthy scratch for more than half of the games this season? Did he do something to piss Tippet off? He's been scratched all those games and isn't injured. Apparently he needs to work on skating and something else. The Yotes don't seem to be interested in sending him back to the OHL probably because he won't learn anymore there. Optimal situation would be the AHL which isn't an option but I still don't know why they would keep him off the ice completely.

Why the hell would anyone trade for Evander Kane period at this point?? Unless you've got cap space to burn and Buffalo lets him go for a song I can't imagine whoever trades for Kane isn't going to have immediate buyer's remorse. He's got almost no trade value right now

The good news is after we trade Tanev away for somebody who's blown both his second and third chance to get back on track, we're only two years removed from replacing him with Rasmus Dahlin, the greatest defenseman of all time, coming to Vancouver and saving us all.

He's got almost no trade value right now The Canucks have no cap space because Jim Benning is an idiot that signs bad hockeyers to worse contracts. Barring the Sedins going back in return or something equally retarded.

I'm at a concert tonight and I've seen that weird guy that owns The Continental and wears that rice paddy farmer's hat that the NY goons were railing on a few weeks ago, and a guy in a Rangers Callahan jersey. I check the scores between sets and the Wings were already down 2-0 less than halfway into the first. I could really use someone doing something really stupid to make me feel better, so ball's in your court Jim

Not only is trading Hutton bad, but the Canucks are somehow spending to the loving cap. There's literally no cap room to do a 1-for-1. It'd have to be Hutton +

Just looking at the state of the Canucks right now... even if they get rid of Benning and swap him for the hypothetical best GM in the world, it will take years to untangle that mess. I mean Sbisa, Sutter, Gudbranson (you know Benning is gonna give him a MacDonald-esque contract even and especially if he gets poo poo-canned).. and the prospect pipeline is not particularly impressive, at least from an outsider's perspective. The absolute best case scenario is that they can unload some of this dead-weight and maybe flip the last year of the Sedins for anything at all to start the rebuild.

Hutton's no world beater but I liked watching him and he's still pretty young so of course Bending would trade him because we sure are one mediocre rear end in a top hat away from taking the Cup home

Hey...hey...guys. Zach Werenski is a good hockeyman.Aye Doc posted:i will take any and every opportunity to dump on Torts but i'm going to actually praise him for what seems like an intelligent, informed, very non-Torts coaching decision and little interview He's also been exchanging good on-ice performances for off days. Also, there was this in response to the "animal" comment about Ryan Reaves: quote:"This really caught me off-guard," Tortorella said. "Immediately after the game one of my PR guys came to me and brought up the subject, and it just knocked me down. My first thought was to reach out to Ryan, and I have done that. Because if I’ve put him in a situation where he even has to be asked questions about this or (be) talked about this way, it’s wrong." http://bluejacketsxtra.dispatch.com/content/blogs/puck-rakers/2016/11/tortorella-calling-reaves-an-animal-was-show-of-respect.html Maybe he's not Satan?
